HONG KONG - Sunshine ( HK: 2012 ) today announced its unaudited financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012. All figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
Highlights
In compliance with National Instrument 51-101 of the Canadian securities administrators, the Corporation announced an update to its reserves and resources evaluation for its reserves and Best Estimate Contingent Resources as at May 31, 2012. Highlights of the May 31, 2012 reports, as independently assessed by GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd. and DeGolyer and MacNaughton Canada Limited, include the following:
-
The Corporation increased Total Petroleum Initially In Place (“PIIP”) recognition to 71 billion barrels, approximately a 26 billion barrel increase;
-
Clastics Best Estimate Contingent Resource recognition increased by 1.2 billion barrels to 3.6 billion barrels primarily due to the Corporation’s drilling program located at its core areas of Harper and Opportunity and from additions and drilling at Pelican Lake; and
-
Carbonates Best Estimate Contingent Resource recognition increased in the Corporation’s core areas of Goffer, Muskwa and Portage, adding over 700 million barrels, for a total of 1.3 billion barrels.
Operational Update - Second Quarter of 2012:
Sunshine is a major holder and developer of oil sands resources with approximately 71 billion barrels of total PIIP, targeting 200,000 barrels per day of production from the Corporation’s first three project areas: West Ells, Thickwood and Legend Lake.
Sunshine has submitted to the Alberta regulatory authority, the Energy Resources Conservation Board (“ERCB”), three 10,000 barrels per day project applications for commercial production from these first three project areas. The West Ells 10,000 barrels per day project has been approved and construction is in progress. The Thickwood and Legend Lake 10,000 barrels per day projects are progressing through the regulatory process, with successful completion of the first of two rounds of Supplemental Information Requests (“SIR”). ERCB approvals for the Thickwood and Legend Lake projects are expected to be on schedule for Q2 2013.
West Ells Development
During the first six months of 2012, the Corporation commenced construction activities at its first major project at West Ells. To support West Ells development, the Corporation jointly completed the construction of a 50 kilometre high grade road with an industry player. To date, the Corporation spent $22.9 million to construct the access road, which is under budget by approximately 16.4%. The West Ells road was completed for light haul in June 2012. The road will be available for heavy haul to transport vessels and modules by September 2012. In addition, the Corporation also constructed 1.6 kilometres of high grade spur road to its West Ells facility site.
The Corporation’s West Ells civil work resumed in mid-June after spring break-up and is approximately 40% complete for the well pad, the corridor and the borrow pits. The Central Processor Facility (“CPF”) site has been cleared and stripping and fill will begin later this summer. West Ells Phase One has an initial production rate of 5,000 barrels per day, which will be followed by an approved expansion for planned production capacity to 10,000 barrels per day.
As at June 30, 2012, $69.8 million has been incurred for West Ells equipment, engineering, construction, civil works, drilling and completions and other project related expenditures of the total estimated budget of $461 million. The Project is currently on schedule and on budget for completion. The facility Front End Engineering and Design (“FEED”) is 100% complete, with Detailed Engineering 48% complete. For capital commitments, 100% of the long lead equipment has been ordered and approximately 75% of the secondary long lead equipment has been procured. No major delays have been encountered to date. First steam for Phase One is expected mid-2013.

Thickwood and Legend Lake
In addition to the progress made on the 10,000 barrel per day Project application approval, the Corporation has initiated the FEED for Thickwood. In addition, detailed baseline environmental data collection has been initiated and is expected to be completed by the end of 2012. This work provides information required for Project applications larger than 2,000 m³ per day (12,000 barrels per day) in anticipation of future development plans at Thickwood, Legend Lake and West Ells.
Cold flow assets
The Corporation continues with the exploration and development of its Muskwa heavy oil assets. As at June 30, 2012, five pads with 39 development wells have produced a cumulative total of 233,808 barrels. Muskwa cumulative production for the first six months of 2012 is 116,340 barrels, representing an average of 639 barrels per day. The Corporation continued production optimization activities in the Muskwa field by implementing new technologies and techniques for enhancing production, sand clean out and other types of wellbore stimulations. The Corporation also commenced construction of its planned pad extension to accommodate the drilling of up to seven additional wells, which are expected to be drilled later in 2012. In June, the Corporation received regulatory approval to install electric heaters on two horizontal wellbores at its Muskwa operations. Field work commenced this summer and is scheduled to be completed in third quarter of 2012. Muskwa remains in the resource definition stage for the Corporation’s financial reporting purposes. As a result, the Corporation capitalizes all costs incurred to date including operating costs net of revenues.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation is pleased to announce the results of the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Fern Energy Ltd. (“Fern”) and Sunshine Oilsands (Hong Kong) Ltd. (“Sunshine Hong Kong”) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 together with comparative figures for the corresponding period in 2011 as follows:

Management's Discussion and Analysis
This Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") of the financial condition and performance of Sunshine Oilsands Ltd. (" Sunshine " or the "Corporation") for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 is dated August 14, 2012. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011. All amounts and tabular amounts are stated in Canadian dollars unless indicated otherwise.
Forward‐Looking Information
Certain statements in this MD&A are forward-looking statements that are, by their nature, subject to significant risks and uncertainties and the Corporation hereby cautions investors about important factors that could cause the Corporation’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in a forward-looking statement. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as “will”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “believe”, “going forward”, “ought to”, “may”, “seek”, “should”, “intend”, “plan”, “projection”, “could”, “vision”, “goals”, “objective”, “target”, “schedules” and “outlook”) are not historical facts, are forward-looking and may involve estimates and assumptions and are subject to risks (including the risk factors detailed in this MD&A), uncertainties and other factors some of which are beyond the Corporation’s control and which are difficult to predict. Accordingly, these factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.
Since actual results or outcomes could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements, the Corporation strongly cautions investors against placing undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Statements relating to “reserves” or “resources” are deemed to be forward-looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that the resources and reserves described can be profitably produced in the future. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and, the Corporation undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
All forward-looking statements in this MD&A are expressly qualified by reference to this cautionary statement. The Corporation does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement except as required by law.
Non‐IFRS Financial Measures
This MD&A includes references to financial measures commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, such as net bitumen revenue, operating earnings, cash flow from operations and cash operating netback. These financial measures are not defined by IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and therefore are referred to as non‐IFRS measures. The non‐IFRS measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to ‐ similar measures presented by other companies. The Corporation uses these non IFRS measures to help evaluate its performance. Management considers net bitumen revenue, operating earnings and cash operating netback important measures as they indicate profitability relative to current commodity prices. Management uses cash flow from operations to measure the Corporation's ability to generate funds to finance capital expenditures and repay debt.
These non‐IFRS measures should not be considered as an alternative to or more meaningful than net income or net cash provided by operating activities, as determined in accordance with IFRS, as an indication of the Corporation's ‐ performance. The non IFRS operating earnings and cash operating netback measures are reconciled to net income, while cash flow from operations is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities, as determined in accordance with IFRS, under the heading "Non‐IFRS Measurements" below.

Overview
The Corporation is headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Sunshine’s principal operations are the exploration, development and production of its portfolio of oil sands leases. The Corporation’s nine principal operating regions in the Athabasca area are at West Ells, Thickwood, Legend Lake, Harper, Muskwa, Pelican Lake, Opportunity, Goffer and Portage.
The Corporation is one of the largest holders of oil sands leases in the Athabasca oil sands region, with over 1,165,350 acres of oilsands leases (equal to approximately 7% of all granted leases in this area), and includes 7,936 acres of Petroleum and Natural Gas (“PNG”) licenses. The Athabasca region is the most prolific oil sands region in the Province of Alberta, Canada. Canada’s oil sands represent the largest oil resource found in a stable political environment located in the western hemisphere and the third largest oil resource in the world, with 169 billion barrels of estimated resources. The Canadian oil sands comprises the largest single source of supply of oil imported into the United States.
As at June 30, 2012, the Corporation had invested $532.1 million in oilsands leases, drilling operations, project planning and regulatory application processing. As at June 30, 2012, the Corporation had $419.5 million in cash and cash equivalents (term deposits) and no debt. The Corporation has raised approximately $1.0 billion in equity proceeds, including the proceeds from its initial public offering (“IPO”) in March 2012.
During the second quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation had the following highlights. The mid-year reserves and resources have been independently evaluated and approved in compliance with National Instrument 51-101 showing substantial growth from past independent evaluation results dated November 30, 2011. The main highlights are summarized as follows:
-
approximately 71 billion barrels of Petroleum Initially In Place (“PIIP”);
-
approximately 5 billion barrels of Best Estimate Contingent Resources, an increase of 1.9 billion barrels, with a low estimate of 2 billion barrels and high estimate of 11 billion barrels. Best Estimate aggregate pre-tax PV10% value is now $6.9 billion, an increase of $1.8 billion representing 36% growth;
-
80 million barrels of 1P (Proved) reserves with an aggregate pre-tax PV10% value of $312 million, an increase of 78 million barrels;
-
445 million barrels of 2P (Proved plus Probable) reserves with an aggregate pre-tax PV10% value of $918 million, an increase of 26 million barrels; and
-
603 million barrels of 3P (Proved plus Probable plus Possible) reserves with an aggregate pre-tax PV10% of $1.6 billion, an increase of 42 million barrels.
The Corporation realized a significant increase in Total PIIP and Best Estimate Contingent Resource recognition in both the clastics and carbonates formations. Total PIIP recognition increased by approximately 26 billion barrels to 71 billion barrels. Clastics Best Estimate Contingent Resource recognition increased by 1.2 billion barrels to 3.6 billion barrels primarily due to the Corporation’s drilling program located at its core areas of Harper and Opportunity and from additions and drilling at Pelican Lake. Carbonates Best Estimate Contingent Resource recognition increased in the Corporation’s core areas of Goffer, Muskwa and Portage, adding over 700 million barrels, for a total of 1.3 billion barrels. The Corporation’s reserves and resource reports, effective May 31, 2012, were independently prepared by DeGolyer and MacNaughton Canada Limited and GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd.
Operational Update - Second Quarter of 2012:
Sunshine is a major holder and developer of oil sands resources with approximately 71 billion barrels of total PIIP, targeting 200,000 barrels per day of production from the Corporation’s first three project areas: West Ells, Thickwood and Legend Lake.
Sunshine has submitted to the Alberta regulatory authority, the Energy Resources Conservation Board (“ERCB”), three 10,000 barrels per day project applications for commercial production from these first three project areas. The West Ells 10,000 barrels per day project has been approved and construction is in progress.
9
The Thickwood and Legend Lake 10,000 barrels per day projects are progressing through the regulatory process, with successful completion of the first of two rounds of Supplemental Information Requests (“SIR”). ERCB approvals for the Thickwood and Legend Lake projects are expected to be on schedule for Q2 2013.
West Ells Development
During the first six months of 2012, the Corporation commenced construction activities at its first major project at West Ells. To support West Ells development, the Corporation jointly completed the construction of a 50 kilometre high grade road with an industry player. To date, the Corporation spent $22.9 million to construct the access road, which is under budget by approximately 16.4%. The West Ells road was completed for light haul in June 2012. The road will be available for heavy haul to transport vessels and modules by September 2012. In addition, the Corporation also constructed 1.6 kilometres of high grade spur road to its West Ells facility site.
The Corporation’s West Ells civil work resumed in mid-June after spring break-up and is approximately 40% complete for the well pad, the corridor and the borrow pits. The Central Processor Facility (“CPF”) site has been cleared and stripping and fill will begin later this summer. West Ells Phase One has an initial production rate of 5,000 barrels per day, which will be followed by an approved expansion for planned production capacity to 10,000 barrels per day.
As at June 30, 2012, $69.8 million has been incurred for West Ells equipment, engineering, construction, civil works, drilling and completions and other project related expenditures of the total estimated budget of $461 million. The Project is currently on schedule and on budget for completion. The facility Front End Engineering and Design (“FEED”) is 100% complete, with Detailed Engineering 48% complete. For capital commitments, 100% of the long lead equipment has been ordered and approximately 75% of the secondary long lead equipment has been procured. No major delays have been encountered to date. First steam for Phase One is expected mid-2013.
Thickwood and Legend Lake
In addition to the progress made on the 10,000 barrel per day Project application approval, the Corporation has initiated the FEED for Thickwood. In addition, detailed baseline environmental data collection has been initiated and is expected to be completed by the end of 2012. This work provides information required for Projects applications larger than 2,000 m³ per day (12,000 barrels per day) in anticipation of future development plans at Thickwood, Legend Lake and West Ells.
Cold flow assets
The Corporation continues with the exploration and development of its Muskwa heavy oil assets. As at June 30, 2012, five pads with 39 development wells have produced a cumulative total of 233,808 barrels. Muskwa cumulative production for the first six months of 2012 is 116,340 barrels, representing an average of 639 barrels per day. The Corporation continued production optimization activities in the Muskwa field by implementing new technologies and techniques for enhancing production, sand clean out and other types of wellbore stimulations. The Corporation also commenced construction of its planned pad extension to accommodate the drilling of up to seven additional wells, which are expected to be drilled later in 2012. In June, the Corporation received regulatory approval to install electric heaters on two horizontal wellbores at its Muskwa operations. Field work commenced this summer and is scheduled to be completed in third quarter of 2012. Muskwa remains in the resource definition stage for the Corporation’s financial reporting purposes. As a result, the Corporation capitalizes all costs incurred to date including operating costs net of revenues.
Non‐IFRS Measurements

The Corporation recognized a net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2012 of $4.7 million compared to $8.5 million for the same period in 2011. For the three month period ended June 30, 2012, the net loss was primarily attributable to general administration costs of $5.0 million, which includes $3.4 million for salaries, consulting and benefits and $1.2 million of other costs for travel and related annual filing and printing costs, share-based payments of $2.5 million offset by foreign exchange gains of $2.1 million and interest income of $0.9 million. For the same period in 2011, the net loss was attributable to $6.8 million of finance costs related to the share repurchase obligation, $3.1 million in general administration costs, which includes $1.2 million for salaries, consulting and benefits and $1.3 million of other costs for travel costs, $1.8 million of share-based payments offset by $2.3 million of a mark to market adjustment on warrants and $0.5 million of interest income.
For the six month period ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation had a net loss of $37.0 million compared to a net loss of $54.7 million for the same period in 2011. The net loss in the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was primarily attributable to finance costs of $17.2 million and the expensed portion of IPO costs of $16.3 million compared to finance costs of $12.2 million and fair value adjustment on warrants of $34.5 million for the same period in 2011.

The Corporation uses these non‐IFRS measurements for its own performance measures and to provide its shareholders and investors with a measurement of the Corporation's ability to internally fund future growth expenditures. These "Non‐IFRS Measurements" are reconciled to net income and net cash provided by operating activities in accordance with IFRS under the heading "Non‐IFRS Measurements".
Cash flow generated from operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 totaled $2.9 million compared to cash flow used in operations of $3.1 million for the same period in 2011. The change resulted from lower finance costs in 2012 compared to 2011 due to the extinguishment of the share repurchase obligation in the first quarter of 2012 and from foreign exchange gains.
Cash flow used in operations for the first half of 2012 totaled $5.8 million compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2011. The change resulted primarily from the settlement of warrants, which eliminated the fair value adjustment on warrants in the first quarter of 2012.

Total finance expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 decreased by $6.7 million from $6.8 million to $0.1 million compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to the extinguishment of the share repurchase obligation. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation recorded $66,201 in accretion for its decommissioning liability compared to $32,416 for the same period in 2011. The Corporation also recognized $6.8 million for non-cash finance costs on the share repurchase obligation, net of $1.3 million which was capitalized for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
12
Total finance costs for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 increased by $5.0 million from $12.2 million to $17.2 million compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to non-cash finance costs attributable to the share repurchase obligation and the expensed portion of share issue costs on the redeemable shares. For the second quarter of 2012, the Corporation recorded finance costs of $5.9 million in total on the share repurchase obligation compared to $13.6 million for the same period in 2011. Of this amount, $1.9 million was capitalized in exploration and evaluation assets for the first six months of 2012 compared to $1.5 million for the same period of 2011. The remaining amount of $3.7 million was expensed in the six month period ended June 30, 2012 compared to $12.1 million in the same period in 2011. The finance cost associated with the redeemable shares is a result of the accounting treatment of these shares. In conjunction with an equity financing completed in February 2011, common shares were issued to subscribers whereby a put right (“Share Redemption Rights”) was agreed to pursuant to the terms and conditions of the subscription agreements (“Subscription Agreements”). According to the Share Redemption Rights, the subscribers, in specific circumstances and at the option of the subscribers, could have required the Corporation to repurchase, for cancellation, all common shares issued under the Subscription Agreements at a redemption price equivalent to the subscription price plus a 15% annual rate of return, compounded annually, if the Corporation did not complete an IPO no later than December 31, 2013. As a consequence, the put right in the Subscription Agreements resulted in these shares being presented as financial liabilities in the Corporation’s statement of financial position in 2011. The redeemable shares were accounted for using amortized cost and the effective interest on the redeemable shares for the period was included in finance expense up to March 1, 2012, the date on which the put right was extinguished with the closing of the Qualifying IPO and listing on the SEHK.
Pursuant to this event, immediately prior to the IPO closing and listing, the redeemable Class “B” common shares converted to Class “A” common shares and the redemption rights of all redeemable common shares were removed with the completion of the Qualifying IPO and listing. Total transaction costs of $17.8 million, which were netted against the share repurchase obligation, included cash fees paid of $11.4 million and $6.4 million assigned as fair value of fee warrants issued to finders. The carrying value of these transaction costs was allocated to share issue costs for $4.7 million. The remainder of $13.0 million was included in finance costs as the expensed portion of share issue costs for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation drew and repaid $30.0 million on an available $100.0 million credit facility. The credit facility was signed in the third quarter of 2011 with an effective date of October 31, 2011. The loan was classified as a financial liability and accounted for as other liabilities at amortized cost. During the six month period ended June 30, 2012, total finance costs of $266,090 were recognized, of which $236,873 was capitalized in exploration and evaluation assets with the remaining $29,217 expensed in finance costs.
Accretion for the unwinding of decommissioning obligation was $137,575 for the second quarter 2012 compared to $61,658 in the same period 2011.
Fair Value Adjustment on Warrants
For the three month period ended June 30, 2011, a mark to market gain on warrants of $2.3 million was recognized compared to $Nil for the same period of 2012. A mark to market loss on warrants of $34.5 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 was recorded compared to $Nil for the six month period ended June 30, 2012. All warrants were repurchased and cancelled on January 4, 2012.
Expensed portion of IPO costs
The expensed portion of IPO costs was $44,460 and $16.3 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $Nil for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011. For the first half of 2012, the expense is comprised of $5.3 million for bonuses and $11.0 million for IPO related costs such as legal and audit fees.

The fair value of share-based payments associated with the granting of stock options and preferred shares is recognized by the Corporation in its consolidated financial statements. Fair value is determined using the Black‐Scholes option pricing model. Share-based compensation expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 was $2.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively, compared to $1.8 million and $3.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The increase in share-based payment expense is primarily the result of the Black‐Scholes valuations for the Corporation’s stock options granted in the first half of 2012. The ‐ Corporation capitalizes a portion of the share based compensation expense associated with capitalized salaries and benefits. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation capitalized $1.3 million and $2.7 ‐ million, respectively, of share based payments to exploration and evaluation assets compared to $2.0 million and $3.5 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2011.

General and administrative expense, which includes salaries, consulting and benefits, rent, and other general administrative costs, for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 increased by $2.2 million to $4.9 million compared to $2.7 million for the same period in 2011.
General and administrative expense, which includes salaries, consulting and benefits, rent, and other general administrative costs, for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 increased by $4.1 million to $8.5 million compared with $4.4 million for the same period in 2011.
14
The increase in expense is primarily the result of growth in Corporation's professional staff and office costs to support the operation and development of our oil sands assets. The head office headcount (including employees and consultants) grew from 94 as of June 30, 2011 to 137 as at June 30, 2012. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, the Corporation capitalized salaries, consulting and benefits, rent and other general administrative costs related to capital investment of $2.4 million and $5.0 million, respectively, compared to $1.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011.
Depreciation
Depreciation expense increased by $19,129 to $65,608 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012. This compared to depreciation expense of $46,479 for the same period in 2011. For the first half of 2012, depreciation expense was $125,982 compared to $83,841 for the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily due to increased computer equipment purchases.
Other Income
Other income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 increased by $2.5 million and $9.1 million, respectively, to $3.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, compared to $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2011. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, the increase was primarily due to foreign exchange gains of $2.1 million and $9.0 million, respectively, on foreign held cash funds converted to Canadian dollars. The Corporation also earned interest income of $0.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively, on higher cash equivalents balances for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2011.
Income Taxes
The Corporation’s deferred income tax expense changed by $0.5 million for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 to $Nil compared to a recovery of $0.5 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 and an expense of $0.5 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2011. The change in deferred income tax expense in 2012 compared to 2011 relates primarily to unrecognized tax losses. Recognition of tax losses is based on the Corporation’s consideration of its internal development plan for its asset base and the assumption as to whether or not these tax losses will be utilized before their expiry dates.

With the close of its IPO and listing on March 1, 2012 on the SEHK, the Corporation has sufficient capital to go beyond its current obligations and does not anticipate raising new equity capital in the near future. Management believes its current capital resources and its ability to manage cash flow and working capital levels will allow the Corporation to meet its current and future obligations and to fund the development of its 2011/2012 capital program and the other needs of the business for at least the next 12 months. However, no assurance can be given that this will be the case or that future sources of capital will not be necessary. As of June 30, 2012, the Corporation's capital resources are $516.9 million.
15
The Corporation also has an available $100 million credit facility, of which $Nil was drawn at June 30, 2012. Working ‐ capital surplus of $383.0 million comprised $419.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, offset by a non cash working capital deficiency of $36.5 million.
During the first half of 2012, the Corporation closed its IPO and listed on the SEHK where the Corporation issued 923,299,500 common shares at HK$4.86 per share raising gross proceeds of HK$4.5 billion (approximately $570.0 million). Immediately prior to the IPO closing and listing, the redeemable Class “B” common shares converted to common shares and the redemption rights of all redeemable common shares were removed with the completion of the Qualifying IPO and listing.
The Corporation is exposed to risks arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of those rates. This exposure primarily relates to certain expenditure commitments, deposits, accounts receivable and accounts payable which are denominated in US dollars and/or HK dollars. The Corporation manages this risk by monitoring foreign exchange rates and evaluating their effects on using Canadian or U.S. vendors as well as timing of transactions. Thus, exchange rate fluctuations can affect the fair value of future cash flows.
The Corporation had no forward exchange rate contracts in place as at or during the six month period ended June 30, 2012. If exchange rates to convert from HK dollars to Canadian dollars had been $0.10 higher or lower with all other variables held constant, foreign cash held at June 30, 2012 would have been impacted by approximately $27,000. At June 30, 2012, the Corporation held HK$13,770,160 (or approximately $1.8 million using the June 30, 2012 exchange rate of 7.612) as cash in the Corporation’s Hong Kong bank accounts.
The Corporation's $419.5 million in cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2012, are held in accounts with a diversified group of highly rated third party financial institutions and consist of invested cash and cash in the Corporation's operating accounts. The cash equivalents portion is invested in high grade liquid term deposits. To date, the Corporation has experienced no loss or lack of access to its cash in operating accounts, invested cash or cash equivalents. However, the Corporation can provide no assurance that access to its invested cash and cash equivalents will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets. While the Corporation monitors the cash balances in its operating and investment accounts and adjusts the cash balances as appropriate, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions or corporations fail or are subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets.

-
McCarthy Tetrault LLP (“McCarthy’s) is a law firm in which a director of the Corporation is a partner. McCarthy’s provides legal counsel to the Corporation.
Details of transactions between the Corporation and its related parties are disclosed below.
Advisory Fee Agreement (the “Agreement”)
During 2010, the Corporation entered into the Agreement with Orient, in which the Corporation agreed to pay a fee for services to be rendered in connection with an initial filing of an IPO prospectus and listing. The fee is equal to 0.75% of the number of common shares issued and outstanding at the time of the initial filing of an IPO and may be settled at the option of the Corporation by either issuing up to 95% of the fee due in common shares plus cash or 100% of the fee due in cash. The term of the Agreement expires January 20, 2013. On March 1, 2012, the Corporation successfully closed its Qualifying IPO and listing on the SEHK. Pursuant to this event, the obligation owing for the advisory fee was recognized and 13,566,395 common shares were issued for $8.4 million and cash fee of $440,933 was paid. Since the terms have been fulfilled, the Agreement has terminated. The service provider is a company which is controlled by a director who is a principal of a significant shareholder of the Corporation, and who also holds a senior management position with the service provider company.
Credit Facility Agreement (the “Credit Facility Agreement”)
The Corporation entered into the Credit Facility Agreement with Orient, a non-arm’s length lender, in which a credit facility for general working capital purposes is available of up to a maximum of $100 million. The credit facility was interest free until May 31, 2012, after which interest of 5% is due on a semi-annual basis on the outstanding principal. The loan is unsecured and subordinated, has no stand-by fee and can be repaid at anytime without penalty. The effective date of the agreement is October 31, 2011, and has a term of two years from the date of initial drawdown, which was January 13, 2012. Amounts drawn on the loan will be accounted for as a related party transaction since a director of the Corporation is also the controlling shareholder of the lending company. During the first quarter of 2012, the Corporation drew $30.0 million on the credit facility and repaid the balance prior to period end. As at June 30, 2012, $Nil was outstanding on this credit facility.
18
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, total finance costs were $Nil and $266,090, respectively, of which $Nil and $29,217, respectively, was expensed and $Nil and $236,873, respectively, was capitalized as the funds are directly attributable to the development of the Corporation’s qualifying assets. Upon repayment of the outstanding balance owing on this credit facility, $266,090 was recorded to Other Reserve due to the related party nature of this transaction.
The Corporation incurred consulting fees, share-based compensation and performance related incentive payments to MJH Services and 1226591 AB Co. of $0.4 million and $0.7 million each, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively (three and six month period ended June 30, 2011 - $0.4 million and $0.7 million each, respectively).

Recent accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted
The International Accounting Standard Board (the "IASB") issued a number of new and revised International Accounting Standards ("IASs"), International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), amendments and related Interpretations ("IFRICs") (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "New IFRSs") which are effective for the Corporation's financial period beginning on January 1, 2013. At the date of this report, the IASB has not issued any new or revised standards, amendments and interpretations.
Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Corporation’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
19
The following are the critical judgments, apart from those involving estimations, that management has made in the process of applying the Corporation’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements.
Oil and gas reserves
The process of estimating quantities of reserves is inherently uncertain and complex. It requires significant judgments and decisions based on available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. These estimates may change substantially as additional data from ongoing development activities and production performance becomes available and as economic conditions impacting oil and gas prices and costs change. Reserve estimates are based on, among other things, current production forecasts, prices, cost estimations and economic conditions.
Reserve estimates are critical to many accounting estimates including:
-
determining whether or not an exploratory well has found economically recoverable reserves. Such determinations involve the commitment of additional capital to develop the field based on current estimates of production forecasts, prices and other economic conditions;
-
calculating unit-of-production depletion rates. Proved plus probable reserves are used to determine rates that are applied to each unit-of-production in calculating depletion expense; and
-
assessing development and production assets for impairment. Estimated future net cash flows used to assess impairment of the Corporation’s development and production assets are determined using proved and probable reserves.
Independent qualified reserves evaluators prepare reserve estimates for each property at least annually and issue a report thereon. The reserve estimates are reviewed by the Corporation’s engineers and operational management familiar with the property.
Bitumen Reserves
The estimation of reserves involves the exercise of judgment. Forecasts are based on engineering data, estimated future prices, expected future rates of production and the timing of future capital expenditures, all of which are subject to many uncertainties and interpretations. The Corporation expects that over time its reserves estimates will be revised either upward or downward based on updated information such as the results of future drilling, testing and production. Reserve estimates can have a significant impact on net earnings, as they are a key component in the calculation of depletion and depreciation and for determining potential asset impairment. For example, a revision to the proved reserves estimates would result in a higher or lower depletion and depreciation charge to net earnings. Downward revisions to reserve estimates may also result in an impairment of oil sands property, plant and equipment carrying amounts.
Recoverability of exploration and evaluation costs
Exploration and Evaluation costs (“E&E”) are capitalized as exploration and evaluation assets by cash generating unit (“CGU”) and are assessed for impairment when circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may exceed its recoverable value. This assessment involves judgment as to: (i) the likely future commerciality of the asset and when such commerciality should be determined; (ii) future revenues based on forecasted oil and gas prices; (iii) future development costs and production expenses; (iv) the discount rate to be applied to such revenues and costs for the purpose of deriving a recoverable value, and (v) potential value to future E&E activities of any geological and geographical data acquired.
Decommissioning costs
A provision is required to be recognised for the future retirement obligations associated with the Corporation’s exploration and valuation assets. The decommissioning provision is based on estimated costs, taking into account the anticipated method and extent of restoration consistent with legal, regulatory and constructive requirements, technological advances and the possible use of the site. Since these estimates are specific to the sites involved, there are many individual assumptions underlying the amount provided. These individual assumptions can be subject to change based on actual experience and a change in one or more of these assumptions could result in a materially different amount.
20
Share repurchase obligation
The Corporation had a share repurchase obligation pursuant to the accounting treatment required under IAS 32. In order to calculate a value for the share repurchase obligation, the effective interest method was applied which is based on estimates and assumptions to determine the effective interest rate. The effects of a change in these estimates or assumptions could result in a materially different amount.
Share-based payments
The Corporation recognises compensation expense on options, preferred shares and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) granted. Compensation expense is based on the estimated fair value of each option, preferred share and stock appreciation rights at its grant date, the estimation of which requires management to make assumptions about future volatility of the Corporation’s stock price, future interest rates and the timing with respect to exercise of the options. The effects of a change in one or more of these variables could result in a materially different fair value.
Risk Factors
The business of resource exploration, development and extraction involves a high degree of risk. Material risks and uncertainties affecting the Corporation, their potential impact and the Corporation’s principal risk management strategies are substantially unchanged from those disclosed in the Corporation’s MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2011, which is available at www.sedar.com. The 2011 annual report of the Corporation is available at the Company’s website, www.sunshineoilsands.com, and the website of the SEHK, www.hkexnews.hk. The Corporation’s 2011 Annual Information Form is available at www.sedar.com.
Additional Stock Exchange Information
Additional information required by the SEHK in the half-year interim report and now shown elsewhere in this report is as follows:
Code of Corporate Governance Practice (the “Code”)
The Corporation is committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance. The Corporation recognizes that corporate governance practices are fundamental to the effective and transparent operation of a company and its ability to protect the rights of its shareholders and enhance shareholder value.
Since the Corporation became a publicly listed company during the reporting period on March 1, 2012, the Corporation confirms that the Code was complied with following its public listing, save that the Corporation has not entered into formal letters of appointment with its directors and therefore will deviate from Code Provision D.1.4 of the Code. The Corporation will deviate from Code Provision D.1.4 of the Code since each of the Directors will be appointed on an annual basis at each annual general meeting, which is consistent with market practice in Canada.
Internal controls over financial reporting
There was no change in the Corporation’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the most recently completed quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal controls over financial reporting.
Compliance with the Model Code for Securities Transactions by Directors of Listed Companies (the “Model Code”)
The Corporation confirms that it complied with the Model Code following its public listing.
The Corporation adopted policies regarding directors’ securities transactions in its Corporate Disclosure and Trading Policy that has terms that are no less exacting than those set out in the Model Code of Appendix 10 of the rules governing the listing of securities on the SEHK.
The Board of Directors confirms that all the Directors of the Corporation have complied with the required policies in the Corporate Disclosure and Trading Policy throughout the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Sunshine Oilsands Ltd.
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012
(Expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated) (Unaudited)
1. General information
Sunshine Oilsands Ltd. (the “Corporation”), was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta on February 22, 2007. The address of the Corporation‟s principal place of business is 1020, 903 - 8 Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, T2P 0P7, Canada. The Corporation‟s shares were listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“SEHK”) on March 1, 2012 and trade under the stock code symbol “2012”. On January 26, 2012, shareholders of the Corporation authorized the Corporation to complete up to a 25:1 share split. The Board of Directors of the Corporation concluded that a 20:1 share split was appropriate, increasing the number of common shares, preferred shares and stock options to 20 times their previous outstanding amounts. All share and stock option information is therefore presented on a post split basis.
The Corporation is engaged in the exploration for, and the development of oil properties for the future production of bitumen in the Athabasca oil sands region in Alberta, Canada.
On May 4, 2012, Sunshine Oilsands (Hong Kong) Limited (“Sunshine Hong Kong”) was incorporated in Hong Kong under the Companies Ordinance (Chapter 32 of the Laws of Hong Kong) and is the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The address of the principal place of business for Sunshine Hong Kong is Unit 8504A, 85/F, International Commerce Centre 1 Austin Road West, Kowloon.
The Corporation is a development stage company. The continued existence of the Corporation is dependent on its ability to maintain capital funding to further development and to meet obligations. In the event that such capital is not available to the Corporation, it will be necessary to prioritize activities, which may result in delaying and potentially losing business opportunities and cause potential impairment to recorded assets. The Corporation currently anticipates incurring substantial expenditures to further its capital development program.
2. Basis of Preparation
The condensed interim consolidated financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 „Interim Financial Reporting‟. The results for the interim periods are unaudited and in the opinion of management include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. This report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Corporation prepares its interim consolidated financial statements in compliance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, have been omitted or condensed. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporation‟s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2011.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Corporation and the Corporation‟s wholly owned subsidiaries, Fern Energy Ltd. (“Fern”) and Sunshine Hong Kong. All inter-company transactions, balances, revenues and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.
3. Recent accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted
The International Accounting Standard Board (the "IASB") issued a number of new and revised International Accounting Standards ("IASs"), International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), amendments and related Interpretations ("IFRICs") (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "New IFRSs") which are effective for the Corporation's financial period beginning on January 1, 2013. At the date of this report, the IASB has not issued any new or revised standards, amendments and interpretations.

12. Share capital
On January 26, 2012, shareholders of the Corporation authorized the Corporation to complete up to a 25:1 share split. Prior to closing the IPO, the Board of Directors of the Corporation concluded that a 20:1 share split was appropriate, increasing the number of common shares, preferred shares and stock options to 20 times their previous outstanding amounts. All share and stock option information is therefore presented on a post split basis. In addition, the Articles of Incorporation were amended to remove the voting rights from the Class “G” preferred shares.

Prior to closing of the IPO, 144,628,100 Class “B" common shares were exchanged for Class “A” common shares on a one for one basis and then cancelled. Total transaction costs of $17,769,848, which were netted against the share repurchase obligation, included cash fees paid of $11,391,611 and $6,378,237 assigned as fair value of fee warrants issued to finders.

13. Share-based payments
13.1 Employee stock option plans
Pre-IPO Stock Option Plan:
The Corporation‟s pre-IPO stock option plan was for directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors of the Corporation. The options vest over a period ranging up to three years from the date of grant. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan will have an exercise price that is not less than the price of the most recent private placement, or, if the common shares are listed on a stock exchange, the price which is, from time to time, permitted under the rules of any stock exchange or exchanges on which the Class “A” common shares are then listed.
On September 9, 2010, the 2009 Stock Option Plan dated May 7, 2009 (the “Pre-IPO Stock Option Plan”), was amended, approved, ratified and adopted by shareholders at the Corporation‟s Annual General and Special Meeting. The amendment increased the maximum number of Class “A” common shares that may be reserved for issuance pursuant to the Pre-IPO Stock Option Plan from 169,289,160 to the greater of 210,000,000 or 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares. Following the IPO listing on March 1, 2012, no further options will be issued under the Pre-IPO Stock Option Plan.
Post-IPO Stock Option Plan:
On January 26, 2012, the Post-IPO Stock Option Plan (the “Post-IPO Stock Option Plan”) dated January 26, 2012, was approved and adopted by shareholders at the Corporation‟s Annual General Meeting. The Post-IPO Stock Option Plan was effective immediately prior to the Corporation‟s listing on the SEHK, March 1, 2012. The maximum number of Class “A” common shares that may be reserved for issuance pursuant to the Post-IPO Stock Option Plan is 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares, less the maximum aggregate number of shares underlying the options already granted pursuant to the Pre-IPO Stock Option Plan. Options granted under the Post-IPO Stock Option Plan will have an exercise price that is determined by the Board of Directors but is not less than the higher of the closing price and the five day average closing price of Class “A” common shares, listed on the SEHK.
The terms and conditions of each of the respective Stock Option Plans are substantially similar and have been presented below in total.
13.2 Fair value of stock options granted in the period
The weighted average fair value of the stock options granted for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 was $0.31 and $0.28, respectively, (year ended December 31, 2011: $0.27). Options were priced using the Black Scholes model. From inception of the Corporation to June 30, 2012, the cumulative weighted average fair value per option is $0.11. Where relevant, the expected life used in the model has been adjusted based on management‟s best estimate for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions (including the probability of meeting market conditions attached to the option), and behavioural considerations. Expected volatility is based on the historical share price volatility from a peer group of listed companies. It was assumed that option holders will exercise the options on average three years from the grant date, with an expected forfeiture rate of 1%.

17. Financial instruments
17.1 Capital risk management
The Corporation can be exposed to financial risks on its financial instruments and in the way that it finances its capital requirements. The Corporation manages these financial and capital structure risks by operating in a manner that minimizes its exposure to volatility of the Corporation‟s financial performance.
The Corporation‟s strategy is to access capital, through equity issuances and the utilization of debt, in order to maintain a strong capital base for the objectives of maintaining financial flexibility and to sustain the future development of the business. The Corporation manages its capital structure and makes adjustments relative to changes in economic conditions and the Corporation‟s risk profile. In order to maintain the capital structure, the Corporation may from time to time issue shares and adjust its capital spending to manage current working capital levels. The Corporation monitors its working capital in order to assess capital efficiency. The Corporation‟s capital structure currently includes shareholders‟ equity and working capital. The Corporation is not subject to any externally imposed financial covenants.
On March 1, 2012, the Corporation successfully closed a Qualifying IPO and listing on the SEHK. Pursuant to this event, the balance of the share repurchase obligation, including 433,884,300 common shares (originally comprised of 289,256,200 Class “A” common shares and 144,628,100 Class “B“ common shares), were reclassified as the terms of the Subscription Agreements were agreed with the subscription holders to have been met. All Class “B” common shares were exchanged for Class “A” common shares prior to the closing of the IPO and then were cancelled.
There is no change in the Corporation‟s objectives and strategies of capital management for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012.
The Corporation‟s capital structure is described below:
| June 30, 2012 December 31, 2011 |
|
|---|---|
| Working capital (surplus)/deficiency | (383,055,029) $ 7,096,022 $ |
| Share repurchase obligation | - 224,362,115 |
| Shareholders' equity | 899,978,854 148,585,650 |
| 516,923,825 $ 380,043,787 $ |
17.2 Significant accounting policies
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted (including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement, and the basis for recognition of income and expenses) for each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in Note 3 of the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011.

17.4 Financial risk management
Financial risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk. The Corporation does not use any derivative financial instruments to mitigate these risk exposures. The Corporation does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
17.5 Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as currency risk, commodity price risk and interest rate risk will affect the Corporation‟s net loss. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable limits. There have been no changes over the prior year to the Corporation‟s objectives, policies or processes to manage market risks.
The Corporation is exposed to risks arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of those rates. This exposure primarily relates to certain expenditure commitments, deposits, accounts receivable and accounts payable which are denominated in US dollars and/or HK dollars. The Corporation manages this risk by monitoring foreign exchange rates and evaluating their effects on using Canadian or U.S. vendors as well as timing of transactions. Thus, exchange rate fluctuations can affect the fair value of future cash flows. The Corporation had no forward exchange rate contracts in place as at or during the six month period ended June 30, 2012. If exchange rates to convert from HK dollars to Canadian dollars had been $0.10 higher or lower with all other variables held constant, foreign cash held at June 30, 2012 would have been impacted by approximately $27,000.
On March 1, 2012, the Corporation listed on the SEHK, closed its IPO and issued 923,299,500 shares at HK$4.86 per share for gross proceeds of HK$4,487,235,570. At June 30, 2012, the Corporation held HK$13,770,160 (or $1,809,055 using the June 30, 2012 exchange rate of 7.612) as cash in the Corporation‟s Hong Kong bank account.
Commodity price risk is the risk that the value of future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in commodity prices. Commodity prices for petroleum are impacted by world economic events that dictate the levels of supply and demand. The Corporation has not attempted to mitigate commodity price risk through the use of various financial derivative and physical delivery sales contracts but may consider doing so in the future.
17.6 Interest rate risk management
Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. As at June 30, 2012, the Corporation does not have any floating rate debt.
17.7 Credit risk management
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Corporation if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Corporation‟s cash, deposits and receivables and GST receivable. As at June 30, 2012, the Corporation‟s receivables consisted of 66.5% from oil sale receivables, 16.5% of other receivables and 17.0% from GST receivable.
The Corporation is exposed to credit risk on amounts held in individual banking institutions for balances that are above nominal guaranteed amounts. The Corporation periodically monitors published and available credit information of all its banking institutions.
The Corporation's $419,548,234 in cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2012, are held in accounts with a diversified group of highly rated third party financial institutions and consist of invested cash and cash in the Corporation's operating accounts. The cash equivalents portion is invested in high grade liquid term deposits.
17
Sunshine Oilsands Ltd.
The Corporation is exposed to credit risk from the Corporation‟s receivables from purchasers of the Corporation‟s crude oil. At June 30, 2012, there was no allowance for impairment of accounts receivable and the Corporation did not provide for any doubtful accounts nor was it required to write-off any receivables, as no receivables were considered past due or impaired. The Corporation considers any amounts in excess of 120 days past due.
17.8 Liquidity risk management
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Corporation will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Corporation‟s approach to managing liquidity is to plan that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, using either equity or bank debt proceeds. The Corporation expects to settle all trade and other payable within 90 days.
The Corporation utilizes authorizations for expenditures to manage its planned capital expenditures and actual expenditures are regularly monitored and modified as considered necessary.
17.9 Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at amortised cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate their fair values.
The fair value of cash, term deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short term maturity. The Corporation‟s financial instruments have been assessed on their fair value hierarchy described below.
18. Related party transactions
Balances and transactions between the Corporation and its subsidiary, who are related parties, have been eliminated on consolidation and are not disclosed in this note. Details of transactions between the Corporation and other related parties are disclosed below.

Advisory Fee Agreement (the “Agreement”)
During 2010, the Corporation entered into the Agreement in which the Corporation has agreed to pay a fee for services to be rendered in connection with an initial filing of an IPO prospectus and listing. The fee is equal to 0.75% of the number of common shares issued and outstanding at the time of the initial filing of an IPO and may be settled at the option of the Corporation by either issuing up to 95% of the fee due in common shares plus cash or 100% of the fee due in cash. The term of the Agreement expires January 20, 2013. On March 1, 2012, the Corporation successfully closed its Qualifying IPO and listing on the SEHK. Pursuant to this event, the obligation was settled through the issuance of 13,566,395 common shares for $8,377,723 and cash paid of $440,933. Since the terms have been fulfilled, the Agreement has terminated.
The service provider is a company which is controlled by a director who is a principal of a significant shareholder of the Corporation, and who also holds a senior management position with the service provider company.

Sunshine Oilsands Ltd.
Credit Facility Agreement (the “Credit Facility Agreement”)
The Corporation entered into the Credit Facility Agreement with a non-arm‟s length lender in which a credit facility for general working capital purposes is available of up to a maximum of $100 million. The credit facility was interest free until May 31, 2012, after which, interest of 5% is due on a semi-annual basis on the outstanding principal. The loan is unsecured and subordinated, has no stand-by fee and can be repaid at anytime without penalty. The effective date of the agreement is October 31, 2011, and has a term of two years from the date of initial drawdown, which was January 13, 2012. Amounts drawn on the loan will be accounted for as a related party transaction since a director of the Corporation is also the controlling shareholder of the lending company. The loan is a financial liability and would be classified as other liabilities and recorded at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. As at June 30, 2012, $Nil was outstanding on this credit facility.
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, total finance costs were $Nil and $266,090, respectively, of which $Nil and $29,217, respectively, was expensed and $Nil and $236,873, respectively, was capitalized as the funds are directly attributable to the development of the Corporation‟s qualifying assets. Upon repayment of the outstanding balance owing on this credit facility, $266,090, respectively, was recorded to Other Reserve due to the related party nature of this transaction.
No guarantees have been given or received. No expense has been recognised in the current or prior periods for bad or doubtful debts in respect of the amounts owed by related parties.
